The heater plate isn't an emissions control device, it's for improved driveability in colder temperatures. CA might not make that distinction though, so you might end up having to keep in intact.
Yes, looping the hoses together to bypass the TB heater would be the way to do it, if you can get away with it.

I think we strayed a bit from topic.
Keep your H2o if it still works. I'd go ahead and replace ICS,,,can't hardly believe you still have an original. I've never had icing. I live at 1000 ft. el. Never iced on me up in The Sierra. Had an Opel Manta with Weber carb. In wet / frozen Ohio. Man, that thing formed an iceburge in the throat untill I invented a heated airfilter box.

Alright I made pattern and gasket material. Notice the way the heating unit has the grooves somewhat matching some of the openings on the throttle body. ![[Linked Image]](http://pic70.picturetrail.com/VOL1791/8671937/24603075/411182917.jpg) What about those 3 smaller holes on the edge of the throttle body? I made a pattern from which to cut the gasket material: ![[Linked Image]](http://pic70.picturetrail.com/VOL1791/8671937/24603075/411182918.jpg) Do I make an opening on the gasket for heat from the heating unit to make contact with air passing through those holes?

Can't you use some gasket maker sealer? ![[Linked Image]](http://www.autowares.com/images/product/PERMATEX/per-99070-400.jpg)

I already have the pattern made and gasket material. What about those 3 small holes? Do they need to allow air to contact that heating unit? If so, then I will need to cut holes in the gasket material.

If so, then I will need to cut holes in the gasket material. I've never had to deal with it before myself but maybe you can use a hammer and a set of sockets to cut the holes out of the gasket material? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Yes or no.

Duarte, I'm not sure if you NEED the holes or not. But from every image I've researched on 1989 Dodge Raider 3.0L Throttle Body Gasket, those three holes do not appear.
Good luck.
